In your web.config,

You stated you had:

   <smtp deliveryMethod="PickupDirectoryFromIis" from="[email protected]">

Try changing the deliveryMethod to Network. Let us know if that helped? I will check out my own source when I come home, and post my settings here. I've successfully managed to send mails on user registration etc. Does that work for you, or does that also fail?

Cheers,

Peter

Rav,

My web.config:

  <system.net>
    <mailSettings>
      <smtp from="[email protected]" deliveryMethod="Network" >
        <network host="localhost" password="" userName="" />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
  </system.net>
</configuration>

  <EO defaultConnectionStringName="LocalSqlServer">
    <contactForm mailTo="[email protected]"/>
  </EO>

Also, does the click event in your ASPX pagge refer to the same name as in your code-behind file?

My button:

<asp:Button runat="server" ID="txtSubmit" Text="Send" OnClick="txtSubmit_Click" />

My click event in the code-behind:

        protected void txtSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        try
        {
            // Composed and send a mail
            MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
            msg.IsBodyHtml = false;
            msg.From = new MailAddress(txtEmail.Text, txtName.Text);
            msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailTo));

            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Globals.Settings.ContactFor m.MailCC))
            msg.CC.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailCC));

            msg.Subject = string.Format(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailSub ject, txtSubject.Text);

            msg.Body = txtBody.Text;

            new SmtpClient().Send(msg);

            // Confirm, and empty the page
            lblFeedbackOK.Visible = true;
            lblFeedbackKO.Visible = false;
            txtName.Text = "";
            txtEmail.Text = "";
            txtSubject.Text = "";
            txtBody.Text = "";
        }

        catch (Exception)
        {
            lblFeedbackOK.Visible = false;
            lblFeedbackKO.Visible = true;
        }
    }

Could you post both your aspx and code-behind for the contact page? Perhaps that will help us troubleshoot your problem.

Thanks :)

Cheers,

Peter

Hello Peter

Below is the code behind and aspx for contact...I think thats correct and I have also checked my config file which has the same settings as yours...

protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   try
   {
      MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
      msg.IsBodyHtml = false;
      msg.From = new MailAddress(txtEmail.Text, txtName.Text);
      msg.To.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailTo));
      if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(Globals.Settings.ContactFor m.MailCC))
        msg.CC.Add(new MailAddress(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailCC));
      msg.Subject = string.Format(Globals.Settings.ContactForm.MailSub ject, txtSubject.Text);
      msg.Body = txtBody.Text;
      new SmtpClient().Send(msg);

      lblFeedbackOK.Visible = true;
      lblFeedbackKO.Visible = false;
      txtName.Text = "";
      txtEmail.Text = "";
      txtSubject.Text = "";
      txtBody.Text = "";
   }
   catch (Exception ep)
   {
      lblFeedbackOK.Visible = false;
      lblFeedbackKO.Visible = true;
      lblFeedbackKO.Text = lblFeedbackKO.Text +" "+ ep.Message;
   }
}

Rav,

do you still get an error if you use the "Network" setting instead of the IISFolder one?



http://entropia-online.blogspot.com/

I don't get any errors or exceptions now with Network as the delivery method.
Eamil seems to go as my another label shows up with the message the my email is sent and all the feilds clears up after the eamil is gone but unable to receive email in any of my yahoo or gmail accounts.
thanks
rav
